Description
This option allows an organization to synchronize the user photos from Azure AD (Microsoft 365) to Exclaimer Cloud. This is useful if the organization wants to use the same user photos in Exclaimer Cloud and Microsoft applications, such as Outlook or Teams.

To access the Enable Microsoft User Photos option:
- From the left-hand pane, click Configuration, then select Manage User Data.
NOTE: Manage User Data, Manage Mail Flow, Outlook Signatures and Exchange On-Premises are only available once you have successfully configured your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription.
- In the right-hand pane, under Enable Microsoft User Photos, are the relevant options.

Synchronizing Azure AD User Photos
Azure AD user photos are synchronized automatically when the feature is enabled and will continue to synchronize once every four hours.
Photos uploaded manually will be given priority over those synced from Azure AD.
Exclaimer Cloud will synchronize the photo at the original size it was uploaded, up to a maximum size of 648x648. To apply your own size and other styling, see Working with the User Photo signature element.
Viewing User Photos
The current user photo for each user can be viewed within the User Photos section.
